![]() Hello friends,
Sharing a T'boli kampilan with a scabbard meant for a Visayan tenegre/talibong. I really don't know how this actually happened but in all probability, since some of them (Tboli and Visayan people) live near each other in a T'boli domain/territory and so when the original scabbard was lost/broken, the owner would have taken to use a Visayan scabbard. Enjoy Yves |

![]() This type of bell is commonly found amongst the Blaan. Very old and no longer crafted. The photo attached was taken during a visit with the Blaan near Malungon in April 2016.

Actually this type of bell is not considered a tiger bell because the tiger bell has a "face" on it with eyes and a big mouth for an opening. |

![]() Yup. Definitely not a tiger bell. The later pictures from Yves show that it is indeed a B'laan bell, as noted by Marbel.
